Using Google Maps with QlikView

I followed the instructions on this whitepaper to include Google Maps in my document and it works http://global.qlik.com/uploadedfiles/Whitepapers/whitepaper_how_qliktech_uses_qlikview_google_maps.p....

My question is I seem to be having a problem getting the latitude/longitude coordinates to center correctly on the map. I'm using version 8.5 so I have to overlay the chart on the map, which I've done without much difficulty. The problem seems to be to get the chart to center correctly on the map. I've attached a simple example of what I'm getting. Has anyone used the whitepaper example to implement Google Maps?

Thanks.

I have a feeling that everything will work if you uncheck "Forced 0" checkboxes for both X and Y on the Axis Tab of your chart.

When I'm trying to open your document, I'm getting an "Access Denied" message - please double check the file.

Thanks Oleg. That seemed to help with placing the point in the correct position relative to the map, once I lined them up (see attached). My other question is this. is there a way to remove the X and Y axis lines that are on the righthand side and bottom of the chart?

Yes. On the "Style" tab, select "Plot Area Background Style" = "Frame", and on the "Colors" tab - set "Plot Area Border" to have width 0. This will remove the frame.

Hi,

Just a suggestion to display your data.

Maybe you could be interested. I created an app to display the relation between "Customer" & "Customer Ship to" as a flow with an arrow.

Don't hesitate to ask me.

Jean-Jacques,

I'd like to see that app. Can you post it?

Thanks,
